Title: Thompson Encore Barrel
Post by: foxpro51 on February 16, 2009, 07:07:49 PM
 Thompson Encore barrel. Nice blued 223 caliber. Heavy barrel with muzzle brake. $175.00 Bases included. Great for that steady shot at predators.

What scope did you have on it?  I already have a 209x50 and a turkey barrel.  I just put a deposit on a CZ 223 with a BSA scope.

I was just looking at one at the Sportsmans warehouse. 223 model 527 American, single set trigger. Very nice gun. I think it was priced at $627.00 or a little more.

That single set trigger is great.  Only thing I don't like is the backward safety.  VERY accurate rifles.

Did you check with Grice's?

I bought a 527 American in 22 Hornet last year and they beat Bob's A & N and Sportsmans by $50.

Grice  $479
Bob's  $534
Sportmans   $527

The one I looked at had the normal safety. My other ones have the reverse safety and it took a little getting used to. Other than that they're great guns for the money. I usually buy my guns off of a gunsmith/dealer in W. Newton Pa. He cuts the price some for me because I buy so much stuff there. I still shop prices just to make sure.

Randy sitzinger. I think that's how his name is spelled. Have you been there? He will order anything you want and show you his cost from the manufacture book. He is ok with making a few bucks and he will beat any ones price.

Between the Pontiac Dealer and Rite Aid on 136 just as you go into W. Newton from Rt 51. Go between the Dealer and drug store and his store is about 150 yards on the left. No, you can't use my discount. Not free any way. HaHa

sorry about that George, I tried to remember but I couldn't. I thought it was a Pontiac dealer. Randy does nice work. He owes me a couple things so I may go see him soon. I hate going there cause I always buy a new gun when I'm there. I can't stop myself. I'm a mooch for new guns.

Yea, I know the feeling. I only go there when I have to. Otherwise, I'll come out of there broke. But that usaually the story when I go to cabelas or gander mt. too. Then there's Ace's sporting goods. I could go on and on. ::)

BTW, you ever been to Elmo's in brownsville ? He usaually beats everyone on prices. Not always though. He's surely worth the phone call. ;)

Nope. Never been to Elmos. I do know if you take Elmos or any other price to Randy, He will beat it. You need to do your homework before you go see any of them. You have to know your prices or they will hit you a little high. If they think you trust them and don't shop around they will make some money on you. Nothing wrong with some one making money but there's nothing wrong with saving a few bucks either.

For some reason Brownsville seems like it's on the other side of the world. I never go there.
